So when there is a flag or something is off, I require they submit a pic of the actual SS card to confirm correct identity/use of SS#.

Then the tool could send me email alerts after scanning the local MLS for listings that meet my investment criteria.

Mant PMCs offer this service.We have seen a few turnkey companies that provide pics/videos showing the work being done to PROVE what they did and the quality - at different stages of the work (not just at completion).You would also want to DEMAND similar proof of anyone you hired to rehab a beatup purchase.Let us know what other questions we can answer.

I scanned through zillow and found upstate ny and Ohio state are  affordable and more options to choose from.

any pics on the build? 

Better pics, temporarily lower price to get more reviews, whatever it takes. 

However, promoting a $35,000 West Side Home in a disposition effort has proven challenging as:-Access is restricted until final walk through before closing-A non refundable deposit is required (required by dispo company)-Only pics of the outside of the home-Home will be vacant at closingThe home looks decent from the outside & allocating for a full rehab on an 850 SqFt SFH, home est. retail value after reno around 150kLooking for thoughts of other investors & or realtors on this one as I thought this one would fly off the marketplace....  

The face on the thumbnail may seem similar to the face on my profile pic.4.

Your pic looks like you have breakers, so there have been updates.

I’ve scanned Zillow in my area and with the market being how it is now I just feel reluctant to buy something a little more pricier….but with that said you at least know what you’re getting by having access to the inside of the home.
